Deplorable conditions and they aren't happy.

@Rajk999 saidI think it's funny they put the trannies in a concentration camp whereas in the USA they were just fine. Dimbazzes.

This thread fairly well sums up the MAGA movement as a whole, and why it's doomed to complete failure. To wit: the suffering of others is characterized as "funny," while trends showing that MAGA is, in real time, destroying the US's present standing and future prospects are ignored or rationalized away.
Refer again to my "brain drain" thread, which is just one of myriad things happening right now that shows the Empire is face down and bleeding out, day by day. It will take generations for the US to recover, by which time China, India, and the European Union will be far, far ahead.
Policies of division, fear, hate, war—none of these things profit a nation for long. There's a temporary, fevered period when ultranationalism, persecutions, and bellicose chest-thumping provides a euphoric rush (to some) and may have the feel of being unstoppable, but it's always brief. Just a handful of years, at best.
Oh, look. Our allies aren't helping to bail Trump out of his Iran mess. They helped us in times past, for other presidents, but not now. That didn't take long. And should we wonder why???
The noose of isolation is inexorably tightening around the Empire's throat, while inequality and mass disaffection spread like a plague domestically.
Time is running out. Best glue the red hat on tighter, scorn No Kings protestors, and laugh at people so afraid of your cruel regime they rushed across an ocean and temporarily found themselves in an overflow camp. Yes. A real reasonable strategy. Keep ignoring climate change, too—yeah, it's all "fake news." Burn more coal.
@Soothfast saidTalk about being clueless.

This thread is about how trannies are crying about how awful they have it in the US, only to find out when they go the the wonderful world of the free wheeling Dutch they end up worse off than ever.
I find that hilarious.
There is nothing wrong with how they had it at home, "escaping" from America and ending up in a prison camp should have made them realize that.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidMAGA wouldn't be what it is were its groupies not themselves clueless to the suffering and fear their "movement" (itself incoherent) causes. You don't even ask yourself why so many should be fleeing the US that overflow camps need to be erected to take them in. From your hated "trannies" to the best and brightest scientific researchers in the world, there is a vast exodus. And you find it funny.

So yeah, your response only affirms my point. I'd thank you, but you did not intend to help.

You act like there are millions of Americans doing it.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidRemember many of these US Democrats belong to DSA, the Democratic Socialist of America. The DSA has plans to reduce the US to failed economies like Cuba and Venezuela.

Google DSA. Soothfast has been carrying on about how great this organisation is and how it will lead to a more equitable America. The man hates capitalism.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidMore US Citizens left the USA in 2025 to live abroad than in any other year since the Great Depression.

@Soothfast saidWorse than the Jehovah Witnesses you are. After a 100 years of wrongly prophesying the return of Christ, they are still doing it.

Same with you environmentalists. For the last 75 years its all about the end of the planet, ice age, rising sea levels, depletion of the ozone layer and a whole lot of crying wolf and exaggerating... nothing of which has materialised. Instead the world has progressed in the last 75 years beyond all expectations.
In about 50 years you people would be laughed at and ridiculed. Your children would keep that secret that you were an environmentalist.
@Rajk999 saidThe ozone layer has been recovering nicely since an international agreement was arrived at to ban the use of chlorofluorocarbons. It will still take decades for the ozone layer to be back to normal, though.

I hear a lot of nonsense from your sort that there's no problem with the environment because initial predictions back 50 or 60 years ago were off the mark. As a matter of fact all the dire predictions are now coming true, and I find it flabbergasting that you seem unaware of it. Sea levels are rising, glaciers are receding, climates are changing, and the ocean acidifying. Coral reefs around the world are becoming bleached, and atmospheric CO2 levels rising.
Throughout the world the data is overwhelming. Populations of birds and insects are plummeting just about everywhere, from the tropics to temperate zones. If you ever pulled your head out of the sand, quit ranting about throwing people in ovens, and read some real news for a change, you'd see that the planet is indeed extremely sick, and getting sicker. There are hundreds of independent metrics that spell it out, and it bodes more ill for the future prospects of humanity than all its other problems combined.
It's charming, in a way, how right-wingers pretend that the Earth is an eternal roll of toilet paper than can just be used and abused without restraint, and somehow the consequences will never come back and bite them (and more upright-walking humans) in the ass.
As you said, the world has progressed in the last 75 years, and that includes climate science. In the early days models were far off the mark, but as data has poured in, studies have been done, and computer analyses have become more robust, we not only have far more accurate predictive models, but we're at the point where we're seeing them verified in real time.
Get out of that tiny bubble, sweet summer child. There's a whole world out there to explore—for a bit longer anyway.
@Soothfast saidExcuse me for not trusting your pseudo-science. Check back in 100 years. Maybe then. Right now you people, doctors and environmentalists are no better than the Jehovah Witness false prophets. You take incomplete often false or poorly understood information rewrite them as absolute truths. Rather than lying, a more honest approach would be more in line with .. Hey, we are not sure but it would appear that we need to do x, y and z so that a, b and c, can happen ... maybe .. The cost of this failure on the part of science is billions of dollars, deaths, poor health for millions of people. Things like carbon credits is an absolute fraud and a complete waste. Who the hell thought of that and who are the idiots that actually implement such rubbish.

So while you big mouth fake scientists get your act together, we down here are going to eat all the sharks and turtles our heart desires and drive in our diesel pickup trucks.
@Rajk999 saidYeah. "It's all fake."

The entomologists are all lying about declining insect populations, especially in proximity to human development. Meteorologists, oceanologists, biologists, and climate scientists are just making up stuff about rising atmospheric CO2 and methane levels, the acidification of ocean waters, coral reef die-off, collapsing fish populations, and so on.
Hell, you can hear it from ordinary people just about anywhere: fewer fireflies and butterflies, fewer varieties of insects, fewer birds. When you pay attention you see it. You hear it. The silence is deafening. The pollinators are thinning out, and that's going to be bad news for agriculture.
Of course, you are not a normal, rational person. Bombing mosques and throwing people in ovens is okay by you. You're a sick little puppy, no doubt about it. But you need to be called out here, so that your poison stops with you and your political bedfellows. There's nothing whatsoever redeeming about you. Frankly, deep down, I think you know the living earth is in serious trouble, but the thing about cognitive dissonance is that it's impervious to logic.
Too bad for you.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidOh, please.
They left in 2025 because they were feeling the effects of what Biden and the dems did up to the end 2024.
When will you MAGA fools wake up to the damage your Orange Jesus is causing the US and the world?
